Anyone else anxious for accessport?
 
I have decided to go for a Reflash... But i would like to be able to tune it after the flash...

Vishnu/Ecutek has this function, but I am still very interested in the Cobb version to see what will be adjustible, and to see what exactly it will be able to do..

Has anyone heard anyword on this?
Do you think it will be worth the wait?
Or should i just screw it, and buy an Ecutek?

The moment I hear that the Access Port is available I am getting one! :-)

The wait is killing me...

The accessport will not allow you to do your own tuning. Cobb has said however that they will be releasing AccessTuner, but that is going to be after the release of the accesport sometime. It couldn't be that much later since the accessport is already 3 months overdue, [url]www.wrxforum.com[/url] .

As for tuning with the ecutek, you will need to purchase a delta dash as well (~$300). If you are planning on doing any real fine tuning I don't think the ecutek is gonna work out for you. The ecutek will let you only change values by a certain percentage over the entire map. You might want to go for a UTEC or wait and see what Cobb or Ecutek come up with as far as real user tuning.

True but they're making sure it's physically compatible with the new ECU's in the '04's...they had to redesign the case and that set them back...rather than just releasing it to 02-03's...

Worth the wait in my book. Plus even if you get an AccessECU flash now, you can pay the difference to get the Accessport when it becomes available...this is a great upgrade path...

Yea I wasn't criticising them or *****, just making an observation that if they said the Accesstuner would be released shortly after the accessport, now that the accessport is delayed for whatever reason, accesstuner couldn't be too far behind.

I'm waiting because I want to dump my original flash before I reflash just in case I need to go back to stock for whatever reason....besides, I can't be without a car while the ECU takes a little trip.

AGREED! Bring on the AccessPort! :p

krillz Aug 28, 2003 04:25 AM

i was gonna get a accessuecu, but i want to make substantially more power then any of there maps and im nowhere near them for a dyno tune

do you think with the tuner/port i will be able to tune a large turbo / stage 4?

mmboost Aug 28, 2003 10:08 PM

Man I can't wait either. I'm at a point where, for various reasons, can't do any more parts swapping. Its either this or a UTEC. After hearing many reports of the better smoothness and stability of Cobbs flashes... I'm slowly thinking of going in that direction.

I'll waiting for it also. I may just go ahead and do the reflash and just get the access port when its available.

I talked to COBB the other day about access port and it will have limited tuning ability. Fuel, timing and boost curves. Nothing else though.

Waaa-Pst Sep 8, 2003 05:21 PM

but, can you download and switch current maps???

for example...

You have the stock replacement map installed... and over a weekend you install, up-pipe, down-pipe, and cat-back, will we be able to download a similar map for this set-up, then load it into the ACCESSECU????

That is the big thing I am curious about...

Any word on when they are releasing the AccessPort? I see nothing new on their Web site and forums.
